He is accused of stealing the congregations funds while watching over the very ill deacon. Silas claims that he is being framed and accuses his best friend, William Dane, and believes that God will direct the process and establish the truth. However, people dont believe him and the woman Silas was to marry breaks their engagement and marries William instead. With his life shattered, his trust in God lost, and his heart broken, Silas leaves Lantern Yard and the city for a rural area where he is unknown. Marner travels south to the Midlands and settles near the rural village of Raveloe in Warwickshire where he lives isolated and alone, choosing to have only minimal contact with the residents beyond his work as a linen weaver. He devotes himself wholeheartedly to his craft and comes to adore the gold coins he earns and hoards from his weaving. But another theft happens and it changes his life again.

Una investigación sobre la naturaleza y causas de la riqueza de las naciones (título original en inglés: An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations), o sencillamente La riqueza de las naciones, es la obra mas celebre de Adam Smith. Publicado en el 9 de marzo de 1776, es considerado el primer libro moderno de economia.Smith expone su analisis sobre el origen de la prosperidad de paises como Inglaterra o los Paises Bajos. Desarrolla teorias economicas sobre la division del trabajo, el mercado, la moneda, la naturaleza de la riqueza, el precio de las mercancias en trabajo, los salarios, los beneficios y la acumulacion del capital. Examina diferentes sistemas de economia politica, en particular, el mercantilismo y la fisiocracia; asimismo, desarrolla la idea de un orden natural. Este "sistema de libertad natural", como lo llama Smith, es el resultado del libre ejercicio del interes individual que beneficia exitosamente sin proponerselo al bien comun en la solucion de problemas y satisfaccion de necesidades por medio de la libre empresa, de la libre competencia y del libre comercio.La riqueza de las naciones es hoy una de las obras mas importantes de la disciplina economica y, para Amartya Sen, "el libro mas grande jamas escrito sobre la vida economica". Se trata del documento fundador de la economia clasica y, sin duda, del liberalismo economico.
